Love, love, LOVE all the pockets and here's why....
I've seen a lot of negative comments about the pocket design on these pants, but I respectfully disagree with them all. I run a pet sitting business and these pants have been a HUGE GAME CHANGER for me. For the record, I'm female and cannot find women's cargo pants that A) are made to last and B) have pockets that are actually FUNCTIONAL. I needed something with enough pockets to store my essentials and allow my hands to be totally free when I'm out walking dogs, as I don't want to deal with a cumbersome purse, backpack or fanny pack when working. Particularly in 90+ degree temps, these pants area SERIOUS WIN to avoid uncomfortable and unsightly back sweat.Following are 3 elements that I like most;1) They have enough small pockets so that I can keep all my essentials SEPARATED NEATLY, which makes it a "quick draw" whenever I need to access anything. I've found I don't like the standard design of cargo pants with two single, large pockets on each leg because all my items "get lost in the shuffle." When I've got multiple dogs in my hands, I need to be able to quickly and accurately retrieve whatever specific item I'm trying to access. The multi/smaller pocket design is IMHO the BEST pocket design I've ever found, saving me time and the distraction of digging for stuff, keeping me focused on my dogs.2) All pockets have velcro closures opposed to button closures. This is all about functionality. Sometimes I have to run and I need a pocket that securely closes QUICKLY. I don't have time to be fiddling with an annoying button every time I need to open and close a pocket.3) These are durable but still lightweight enough for me to wear in high temps without completely sweating through them. Because really, no self respecting girl wants sweat rings on her butt or back. That's just gross.I use the pockets in a very specific way. Here's how;LEFT LEGThere are 2 small upper pockets (side by side) and 1 rectangular pocket underneath.UPPER RIGHT POCKET - I use this for all my I.D./credit cards. The size/shape of this small pocket is the PERFECT size for all my cards to stay in a NEAT, SINGLE STACK. In other words, it's just snug enough that prevents them from getting all shuffled up.UPPER LEFT POCKET - I use this one for my chapstick, plus mini tubes of sunscreen and hand sanitizer. Three small items fit neatly in a single, upright row. Again, another PERFECT fit.LOWER LEFT RECTANGULAR POCKET - This is a low pocket, so I don't want anything hard that'll rub against my thigh. This is the perfect space for my sunglass chamois (just a soft cloth) that I'm constantly using after getting wet, sloppy doggy kisses all over my glasses - perks of the job ;)RIGHT LEGThere's 1 large gusset pocket with a BUILT-IN smaller pocket WITHIN this large pocket. This smaller pocket is perfect to carry a small stack of business cards, an absolute must have (for me) at all times. The built-in pocket is clutch because;A) They keep my cards FLAT and prevent them from getting damaged by other loose items in a traditional larger pocket.B) Because the pocket is built-in, it creates a "second skin" around my cards preventing any body sweat from soaking into the cards. Gross, I know - and probably TMI. But this has saved me costs in throwing out soggy cards (wasting money) and the personal guilt I feel from throwing out paper products that were previously perfectly fine.My only complaint about these pants?? They don't come in enough colors!!***ATTN WRANGLER*** Please, please, please MAKE THIS EXACT STYLE OF CARGO IN MORE COLORS!!! I'll literally buy TWO of EACH color.USER TIPS:1) Unless I've gotten a particularly nasty stain on them, I usually wash them inside out if washing with other clothing because of the velcro on the pockets. Sometimes the pockets become detached during the washing cycle and the adhesive side of the velcro can damage fabrics of your other items in the wash. Although now I have so many of these specific cargos that I just wash them all together in a single load. Yup, darks and lights together. Once I've washed the darker colors separately a few times I don't worry about washing them with my lighter pairs. To date, I've never had a problem with the darker colored pairs bleeding onto the lighter ones.2) I recommend HANGING TO DRY after the first (or second) washing. This will help prevent shrinkage. I've hanged to dry for after the first two washings for each pair and have never had any issues with shrinkage.I hope all this info helps when making your choice. As with anything, pocket design is clearly a matter of different strokes for different folks. But since there were so many negative reviews I felt obligated to chime in to say that this design wasn't a total bomb for everyone, as it was the exact opposite for me. So if there are others (like me) who have very specific needs, then these pants may just be the perfect fit for you.

Great cargo pants, slightly annoying pockets
Much to my wife's regret, I find cargo pants the perfect things to wear at work. I often need to carry So Many Things - usually computer adapters, phones, chargers, etc, AND carry around my laptop. With cargo pants, everything except the laptop goes into a pocket. But I wish I'd paid closer attention to the details about *these* pockets. Admittedly, that's my own fault. What I *really* need are 2 large pockets on the sides/thigh. These are actually several smaller pockets instead of a few large ones. And, they're just a bit too small for some of the bits and bobs I usually cart around. The pants themselves fit great. They're a true relaxed fit - something my aging body really appreciates. All-day comfortable, and the width is actually a bit wider than expected. Which, again, I appreciate because sometimes I have to go up to a 35" waist instead of my usual 34".

Suits me
The cloth is a little thinner than I expected, but other than that, I like them fine. The pocket layout works for what I need. The fit is loose, but that is what I wanted. I liked them enough that I bought a couple more.

The fit being a bit big gives me room for a big meal!
I bought it because I like to use pockets instead of a purse. These pants give me the pockets I need, so if I need to go to the store I just change my pants and am ready to go, hands free with every thing fitting nicely. I am losing weight slowly and expect to order a size down within the year, so the price is very reasonable!

Pockets! Comfort! Style! Pockets!
I never thought I would like cargo pants, now I wear cargo pants or shorts most of the time. I needed some pants more stylish than denim jeans. After switching to cargo shorts for hiking and dog walking, I decided to try these pants. Very comfortable, nice style, great price and POCKETS! I bought two pair and will probably buy two more so that I have four colors to choose from.

Good fit at waist... a smidge long
These fit good around my waist. Are a little bit longer than other pants the same measurements. Feel pretty comfortable.

Inconsistencies
I love these, however, I got a pair that's marked 34x32,however, in reality, it was 32x34. No option to trade in, so refund and rebuy and hope the inconsistencies stop.

Received pants that had been worn.
I have 6 pair of these pants. The last pair I ordered online came so wrinkled they looked like they were rolled in a ball. I thought this odd but not the end of the world. I put them on for the first time today and found in the pocket someone’s dental floss. Clearly the jeans had been worn and returned. Then reshipped to me as new. I find this a little disturbing.Darrell Westerman

These pants are comfortable, made of a light weight material that feels good. Plenty of pockets.Shame about the long delivery time. Other than that a very good product, excellent for summer

Good value
I ordered these to replace a pair bought in the USA, so knew that the size would be fine. They have a lot of velcro'd pockets of various size and shapes, including a good one for mobile phones. They're hard-wearing and last a long time, and can be dyed if they start to fade.

Wrong colour
These trousers are good.No issue with the quality however as I am in the UK and they come from the US they have sent the wrong colour than I ordered so not impressed.
